There’s a VP campaign commercial on these days for
Chris Christie extolling all the wonderful things he’s done for the state of New Jersey. Apparently he’s some sort of reformer. The commercial makes all sorts of claims
about how he’s been so wonderful for the state.
Things like he balanced the budget – just like every other
governor because it’s required by law. They
also fail to mention in the commercial that the state has not met all of its
obligations. In other words the budget was
balanced because some of the bills weren’t paid.
The rest of the commercial is just a bunch of half-truths
and lies. Projects that would have
created jobs have been cut, public school funding has been cut, public sector
pensions have been hurt and overall economic performance and job creation lag
well behind the neighboring states of New York
and Pennsylvania.
The commercial is nothing but bs, but I guess that’s what
you do when you want to sound like a good choice for VP governor.
